Audubon Society Bird Walk Saturday At Union Bay Natural Area

The Seattle Audubon Society is having a bird walk at the Montlake Fill (Union Bay Natural Area) on Saturday at 7:30am. Participants should meet at 7:30am at the Center for Urban Horticulture east parking lot by the greenhouses. The walk should be over by about 11:30am. The information says:

All levels of birding skill welcome on this very early spring 3 mile walk.

We expect wrens, some early migrants, raptors and waterfowl. The Fill often provides a look at (or sound of) the unexpected bird. We should find around 40 species.

Bring binoculars, a scope if you own one. Wear layers, be prepared for rain and have boots for the mud. Expect mostly flat terrain.

You may want to bring snacks and water. Since restrooms are scarce, you will want to stop at the U Village QFC before you arrive. The walk will be led by Sharon Ellard and Jean Olson.
